Preparation of the spinach
During this time, I pick off the leaves of spinach or kangkong. As you can see,
the nodes of this spinach are the starting point of sprouts. So, I make sure
that I cannot damage or include the nodes of the spinach because this we will
make its roots grow. After I pick off the leaves, I put the spinach in a plastic
cup with water.
Title: Small Space Gardening or Bottle Container Gardening
Overview of the Activity or Task
Planting spinach or kangkong from cuttings is the focus of this
activity/task. This task is crucial because if my plant grows, we will use it as
an ingredient in dishes such as sinigang or adobong kangkong. When I
completed this task, I felt a sense of accomplishment and happiness
because it meant I could grow a plant. Throughout this activity, I will
demonstrate what happens when I plant a kangkong from cuttings and how it
starts growing after a few days/weeks.
